In fashion, last year was the year of Katie Holmes and 2020 is proving to be exactly the same. With a number of viral fashion moments under her belt, there’s no doubt that everyone in the industry has been obsessing over her style. So, who is behind Katie Holmes’s most talked-about looks? Meet Allison Bornstein, a stylist with a knack for crafting outfits that are equal parts sexy and understated, elevated and attainable.
Yes, she’ll dress Holmes in a timeless satin dress, but she’ll also add in pair of knee-high pony hair zebra boots from Khaite to make it feel modern and cool. But the looks are also approachable. She wears jeans on repeat, and often chooses affordable pieces, like the $78 T-shirt she wore with head-to-toe Chanel. This, is the magic of the looks Bornstein styles for Holmes.
A quick visit to Bornstein’s Instagram, @allisonbornstein6, and it’s clear that she believes in making fashion accessible and has a sensibility for high-low dressing. There, she has a series where she breaks down wardrobe staples and current trends with her recommendations for how to style them and shop them at any price point. Addicted to the series myself, I asked Bornstein to share her affordable shopping picks to tap into the coolest spring 2020 trends. Here, the best spring trends for under $200, hand-picked by Allison Bornstein.
